​Courtney Bailey 

Courtney Bailey, Ph.D., is a St. Louis-based writer and theatre artist who is passionate about creating meaningful texts and performances that highlight stories of marginalized gender identities. She is also deeply entrenched in long-form storytelling, be it written or performed. Her artistic priorities as a theatre artist, specifically, consist of queer representation, responsible storytelling across cultures and identities, and the consistently hard work of blurring the lines between writer and performer. As a queer woman writer across multiple mediums—including plays, fiction, and literary criticism—whose interests span gender(ed) representation, religious deconstruction, and intersectional feminism, she has a diverse publication and production record.
